The
Hoover Dam Bypass is part of the CanaMex Highway that is intended to be a four-lane,
uninterrupted highway between Canada and Mexico to increase trade within the
NAFTA Group. The project that will connect Arizona and Nevada
with a 2,000 foot long span of four lane highway that will cross 890 feet above the Colorado
River.

The Hooover Dam
has been a major delay along that route for some time. It cuts traffic
down to two lanes and the volume of tourist traffic requires speed
limits of 15 miles per hour.

The new bridge
will cut past those delays and create a four-lane, sixty-five miles per
hour route that will cut eight miles from the trip, reducing the overall
trip time by at least twenty minutes. Once complete, Henderson is only
30 minutes from White Hills, and downtown Las Vegas only 45 minutes,
putting us close enough to be a viable bedroom community for Las Vegas.

Banking on
that, several developers have begun the planning and development of
master planned communities in the area, such as Leonard Mardian's Ranch
at White Hills. For detailed information,
